Martin Tyler produced a truly outstanding bit of commentary for Demarai Gray's winner on Monday evening.

Everton ran out 2-1 winners against Arsenal at Goodison Park and Gray's injury time rocket snatched it late.

The 25-year-old's effort went in off the post after cutting inside and it left Gunners goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale rooted to the spot.

It was a special goal good enough to win any game and Tyler, who was working for NBC rather than Sky Sports, gave it the vintage treatment.

Even he was lost for words. That's when you know you've hit an absolute beauty.

Gray ripped his shirt off and wild scenes ensued from Rafa Benitez's side.

Everton had gone eight games without a win and sat just five points above the relegation zone.

Victory for the Toffees was important and Tyler knew, with fans expressing their delight at his commentary.






Everton thought they'd taken the lead in the first half through a Richarlison header, but he was offside.

Just moments later however, it was Arsenal who went ahead after a smart finish from Martin Odegaard.

The Norway international drifted into the box to meet a Kieran Tierney cross.

Richarlison then thought he'd equalised before being judged offside for a second time.

He finally got his goal in the 80th minute, heading home after Gray had rattled the crossbar.

Gray then netted the winner to take Everton up to 12th in the table.

For Arsenal, that's three losses in their last four after going unbeaten in eight and pressure is starting to increase of Mikel Arteta again.
